Materials Needed:


- 2 Inch Pot
- 1 1/2 inch balls with flat bottom
- Hats -- Measure 4 inches across at bottom
- Yarn called Bumples.. can be found at www.factorydirectcraft.com/hair1.shtml

- Glue
- Variety Of Paints, Ribbons, notions, etc.

Directions:
Start off by Painting your pot the colors you
want it to be. Set it aside and work on your head.... paint
the face, let it dry, then add the yarn for the hair. I think
the secret to the curls is this..
wrap it around your 2 fingers next to your thumb 4 times.
Slide off and tie another piece to hold it together in the
middle. Then put it on the head and you can cut the loops
for straight hair or bangs.
After this has all dried, adorn with ribbons,
lace, yo-yo's, buttons, hearts, etc.

Flower Pot Rabbits
The pots are sold as 2" pots but are actually
2 3/4" wide across the top of the pot....Michael's carries
them.
Use 1/2" furniture plugs for the nose, fishing
line for the whiskers....white felt for the ears
The rest is pretty self explanatory....glue
the ribbons and ears on the hat and dipped the eyes and used
a fine line sharpie for the line under the nose.
